Haji, could you maybe give the links to the actual MIDI files, I'd like to try them out in Bandstand. Thx. | ||

1. intonation is too perfect 2. vertical alignment of sound is too accurate (although I hear it adds very small delays so that the sounds are just a bit offset to sound more real) 3. transitions and variations in tempo sound a little contrived 4. solos and such don't quite sound soloistic (timbre, intensity, vibrato, etc. details seem maybe not right) But none of those things are knocks on the audio quality itself. | ||

Afaik it just does the latter. I've never used it but I'm pretty sure what it just does is take MIDI input (which would give you the pitches and rhythms, dynamics, and I forget what else if any) and output a much larger audio file complete with all the fine tuning and using those better samples based on what you select (no doubt the output can be compressed to something like mp3). I mean, you can't have those samples and parameters in MIDI. Or maybe somebody who actually knows what he's talking about wants to respond? | ||

edit: I just downloaded it and listening to the megaman one. Holy cow, you're right. The real files are on a totally different level than youtube | ||

But I guess it can only do the latter and alter music not create it. Thanks for the response. Yes, it is basically a player, altho with a lot of options. Like Myrmidon mentioned, it can even add variety to the sound in order to mimic a human performance, and the rate of which can be adjusted manually. Also, you can use it to change the existing MIDI file in ways like adding more instruments, changing the existing ones, adding solo sequences, etc etc... It's only drawback perhaps is that it will require at least a Gig of RAM to handle all those samples properly, so if you're short on RAM you better go download some now. | ||

Midi is not a particular type of sound, its merely a "language" that comunicates between your synthesizer and your soundcard, thus you can practically add any kind of sound from the synth to a midi tone. So as a response to the topic starter, practically all music you hear on the radio wich has any kind of computer based sound in it is using midi, thus this would sound quality wise score pretty low, however im pretty sure that it was exactly these sounds the composer were after and therefore it doesnt matter. | ||
